˶ U potrazi za azbukom“ – Volunteer camp Tršić
In the organisation of young explorers of Serbia, sponsorshiped by Ministry of youth and sports and program “Youth rules”, was held 10th international camp, “Searching for azbuka”, from 18. to 28. July, in Tršić. For the first time the camp was organized in cooperation with nursing home “Carski konak”. Volunteers from whole world, Amélie Rodulfo (France), Julija Flandija (Slovenia), Maria Paschalidou (Greece), George Pavlidis (Greece), Alberto Aranda Cordero (Spain), Federica Sodini (Italy), Kristina Vitorović (Serbia) and Helena Himel (Serbia), under the camp leadership of Jelena Pantović and Maja Pešić, spent everyday time with aged people in nursing home, where they learnt that the youth is state of mind, that wisdom contains two words – waiting and hope, that smiling is bravery and that the strongest love is love that shows its own weakness. Playing dominoes and chess with them was enjoyable and once again reminded that language is not the wall between the people. We gave each other laughter and hugs and found the best in one another, contributing the socialization between young and old people. Volunteers were working on the walking trail decoration, which connects “Carski konak” and center of Tršić and also on the decoration of Konak Mišić, where volunteers have stayed.
In the end, we promised each other that we will live life the fullest and that we will remember every moment we’ve been trough.
U organizaciji Mladih istraživača Srbije pod pokroviteljstvom Ministarstva omladine i sporta i programa ˶Mladi su zakon“ održan je od 18. do 28. jula deseti međunarodni kamp ˶U potrazi za azbukom“ u Tršiću. Po prvi put je organizovan kamp u saradnji sa Domom za negu starih osoba „Carski Konak“. Volonteri širom sveta Amélie Rodulfo (Francuska), Julija Flandija (Slovenija), Maria Paschalidou (Grčka),George Pavlidis (Grčka), Alberto Aranda Cordero (Španija), Federica Sodini (Italija), Kristina Vitorović (Srbija) i Helena Himel (Srbija) pod vođstvom kamp liderki Jelene Pantović i Maje Pešić svakodnevno su provodili vreme sa starijim osobama u domu. Gde su kroz razgovor sa starijim osobama, naučili da je ˶mladost stanje duha“, ˶da se mudrost može sažeti u dve reči : čekanje i nadu“, da hrabrost leži u osmehu i da je najjača ljubav ona koja može pokazati svoju slabost.“ Uživali smo, igrajući s njima domine i šah, i iznova se podsetili da jezik ne treba da predstavlja prepreku u sporazumevanju s ljudima. Pružali smo, ali i bivali nagrađeni osmehom, darovali zagrljaje i pronalazili ono najbolje jedni u drugima, doprinoseći socijalizaciji mladih i starih. Volonteri i volonterke su radili i na uređenju pešačke staze koja povezuje “Carski Konak” sa centrom Tršića, kao i na dekorisanju objekta Konak Mišić u kojem su volonteri bili smešteni.
Kada je došao da trenutak da se oprostimo, obećali smo jedni drugima da ćemo nastaviti da ˶sakupljamo dane, časove i trenutke“. Da nećemo dozvoliti zaboravu da nas otrgne od uspomena.
